Lyricist Says Salman Khan Cried to Tere Naam After Aishwarya Rai Split

The account is attributed to lyricist Sameer Anjaan in a new podcast interview.

Overview

  • Sameer Anjaan recounts that during Tere Naam, Salman Khan would call Himesh Reshammiya to sing the title track before takes and then break down in tears.
  • He says the track was not written with Salman in mind but became the actor’s personal expression of heartbreak following the 2002 breakup.
  • Anjaan adds that Salman wanted the lyric “Kyun kisiko wafa ke badle wafa nahi milti” to reach Aishwarya Rai as an expression of his pain.
  • Multiple outlets report the story from Anjaan’s appearance on Shubhankar Mishra’s show, with no independent confirmation from Salman Khan or Aishwarya Rai.
  • Coverage also highlights Anjaan’s separate recollection about Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor’s Milenge Milenge delay and PinkVilla’s unverified note of a new Salman–Himesh–Anjaan collaboration for Battle of Galwan.
